He didn't prevail because of his position on abortion - nor did the court assert this as a valid cause. The .gov couldn't prove he hid income. Well, they never got Al Capone for murder either, they got him for taxes. I still thnk this is a victory against Planned Parenthood, in my book.

Our reps give PP half a billion dollars and the states kick in more money from Medicaid. Plus, they get money when the women pay for the abortions. Plus, they make money on the sale of baby body parts. ETC.

I would hazard a guess that PP probably gets close to a cool 1 Billion from us.

The government has the power, but not the right, to ruin you. It thinks it has the right to skim money off the top of our earnings, and leaves us what it thinks we need.

Do you remember that we were promised years back when abortion was legalized that Taxpayers would never have to pay for it? NEVER believe political promises.

When did this change? Who was responsible. It would be worth the study to find out.

Wasn’t it said that eternal vigilance is the price of liberty? We have failed.

I give credit to this man’s great courage.

Yeah unfortunately the merits of this case were decided back in the 60’s when Liberals sought to withhold their taxes to avoid funding the Vietnam War.

Our current tax system is Marxism in it's purest form.
"From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs"

In 1971, SCOTUS ruled that you could be exempted from military service for reasons of Conscientious Objection on the basis of believing that that particular war was unjust because, in the words of Justice Marshall, "to fight in an unjust war is to participate in murder."

Anybody else see the connection here?

Cases like this cannot prevail because anyone could or would object to something about government spending....
